dogs-n-natives 1,182 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Well, the wind really picked up here last night, the strongest winds for a good while. Some old sections of a shed were lifted with the wind and blown accross the yard straight into a large ferret hutch containing 2 jills and 2 jill kits. The hutch was damaged enough for the ferrets to go walk about, and I was woken by the screetch of...you guessed it well unfortunately one of the older jills (not the best worker) met my young terrier, and one of the young jills was unfortunate enough to meet a patt/spaniel who then ate it! I managed to find the other young jill, and put her in another hutch with some other ferrets, but no sign of my best jill at all.... and right at the start of the season Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Malt 379 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Shit, sorry to hear than DnN, the court blew off my court last year, and I had 5 of the gits running around. I was lucky & got them all back. Hope you get yours back, and if not get something sorted shouldent your dogs be broken to ferrets thats one of the first things i do with my dogs The lurchers and spaniels are broken to ferrets, the terriers are ok if im watching, but, well.... i wasnt watching.. just glad ive got a strong team of ferrets this year. My dogs are ferret broken, but I wouldn't trust them unsupervised, same with my kids. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
